It would be interesting to see what the odds were on Divock Origi to score a stoppage-time winner in Sunday’s Merseyside derby.Well, if there is anyone on this planet who made that bet then they are going to be very rich because it was the Belgian who scored in the sixth minute of added time to earn Liverpool a dramatic 1-0 win over Everton.

Not only does it give local bragging rights to the red half of Merseyside, it keeps Liverpool in touch with Premier League leaders Manchester City.Understandably, Kopites all over the world rejoiced at seeing their team score such a late winner and Origi, who has become something of a forgotten man in recent times, received the bulk of the praise.One fan said this goal automatically made the Belgian a club legend. Below you can see more tweets showing Origi the love.

Massive win. Massive for momentum. Massive to keep pace. Massive to keep morale up. Missing that link still but delighted for Origi. Not sure if his loan papers have already been signed but get the shredder out. Klopp's reaction topped it all off. Winning. #LFC #LIVEVE— duhallowreds (@duhallowreds) December 2, 2018
What a ridiculous goal to win a derby. But you have to give credit to Origi for taking the chance and running to press Pickford. Got his well deserved reward. What a guy! Will never forget this moment. #LFC #LIVEVEPS – The KOP end crossbar can do more keep uppies than Lukaku. pic.twitter.com/Cpiw4PcZgp— Heavy Metal Football (@brutalpool) December 2, 2018
Santa Origi. A gift from heaven. Take these 2 extra points and drive on. As crucial as it gets at this stage of the season. Up the reds. #LIVEVE #LFC #Origi #VanDijk— Ranjeet Devckar (@devckar) December 2, 2018
